Used 2007 Toyota Highlander Hybrid Consumer Reviews
Highlander 2wd
Purchased at dealer in MD. Drove 315 miles home. 1/3 interstate @ 70 mph 27 mpg and 2/3 country roads @ 55 mph 30 mpg. Since city/ highway 29 mpg and interstate 70 mph 28 mpg. Good ride and acceleration. Looking to tow 2500lb boat.
Thumbs Up
My job requires that I drive every day anywhere from 10 to 30 miles one way. I'm getting 27.5 mpg compared to the 14 from my previous SUV. That's both highway and city driving. I'm hoping to increase mpg slowly. That being said, so far my HH has been great. Happy that I don't visit the gasoline station as often as before. Quiet ride, love it that the car engine is on (electric) and isn't using up gas. Don't notice the change from gas to electric anymore. Maybe it got better or I just don't notice. Smooth ride and great handling. The little plus is that I'm not putting out any "greenhouse gases" as one reviewer put it. This puts a smile on my face.

Cream of the Crop
After owning what was supposed to be the pinnacle German brand and having nothing but problems during my ownership experience, I decided to give Toyota a try. The Highlander itself is not very interesting to me, but the hybrid really caught my imagination. I drove it and was immediately impressed with the combination of comfort, power, roominess, and economy. A year later, all I can say is that Toyota has actually exceeded all my expectations. The car has been 100% reliable, and both my wife and I truly love it. It's rare that you have a car that is comfortable, fast, easy to drive, and helps you do your part for the environment. It's great, plain and simple.
Bill's first 16 months with Highlander H
Bought for economy. Hwy @ 26 mpg, city @ 32 mpg, thus almost reaching rating of 28/34. Excellent power, smooth transition between gas and electric, transmission shifts seemlessly. Dealer service dept very fast for scheduled service. Zero maintenance problems in 31000 miles. Very quiet operation in city and highway. Big enough to haul stuff like power washer, wheel barrow, construction materials, etc. We are very pleased with the vehicle.
Loving It
I'm loving my Highlander Hybrid. Gas mileage has been great, between 27-29 mpg so far. I have about 4,000 miles on it. Plenty of pep, handles beautifully, looks good, decent cargo space (I used to own a minivan so it's definitely smaller), safe. It's not nearly as good on the gas mileage if you are on the highway riding over 75 mph or stomping on the gas around town. But if you ride smooth you should easily get 27 mpg or even up to 29 mpg. I read a lot of comments previously that it was hard to reach this. Piece of cake.
